DID FRANCOIS HOLLANDE THE FRENCH PRESIDENT AND THE OTHER WORLD LEADERS, NETANYAHU THE ZIONIST LEADER AND MAHMOUD ABBAS, THE PALESTINIAN LEADER SUPPORTED CHARILIE HEBDO

AND BY
EXTENSION AND LOGIC, ALSO SUPPORT THE CREATION OF THE CARRICATURES OF ‘THE
PROPHET’ AND DEFAMING ISLAM?

By
Mansor Puteh

Maybe
they did not realize this but this was what they were showing to the whole
world.

It is
okay for them to do that but why was Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas also
in the crowd?

It is
quite obvious that the President of the Secular Republic of France, Francois
Hollande is scared stiff of the small group of unimportant and insignificant
cartoonists or caricaturists to blindly agree what the cartoonist say concerning
the freedom of expression and of the press.

These
cartoonists some of whom had been killed by some ‘militants’ should have known
better not to impose their will on the others without getting negative and
deadly reactions.

Who are
they to define what freedom of expression and of the press are anyway?

They and
everybody in France
should know that Charlie Hebdo cannot go on using the Prophet to attract
attention to their magazine and madness forever.

They
knew Jesus Christ or Moses or Mary could not do much to help sell their
magazine.

They
have no such power to do that for them, that only Prophet Mohammad, pbuh
can.

Besides
who cares with such freedoms that they defined for themselves which they cannot
impose on other countries and peoples.

Only
uncivilized people and countries would want to do that even if they are a
superpower and have nuclear capabilities to impose those freedoms and also have
veto power in the United Nations Security Council to stop any actions against
them even if they are found to breach international law.

It is
not the job of the French President and other legal eagles to do that for the
French people and country?

If that
is so, why didn’t the French President not also allow their cartoonists to
shape their domestic and also foreign policies since they know more than their
own president, politicians and also professors and other experts?

It is
simple logic that they had failed to understand; and if they had thought about,
then surely, they would not have led the march to support Charlie Hebdo.

Now it
is too late for them to backtrack, they had led the march to show their support
for Charlie Hebo and their stupid definition of the freedom of expression and
of the press.

And by
extension too the French President Francois Hollande can be said and charged
for supporting the drawing of the caricatures of ‘The Prophet’.

But he
is scared because he is not willing so admit it and to also give free copies of
the ‘survivor’s edition’ of the magazine to the leaders who he had met since
them who had come to Paris
to pay homage to him and on his trips abroad.

He is
now making a trip to Havana,
Cuba, but one
cannot think they he would be bringing some copies of the magazine to share
with his counterparts in the country.

He can
also wear tee-shirts bearing the print of the front-cover of the magazine
wherever he goes and get the Alliance Francais to organizes special exhibitions
on the magazine and explain to the locals in those countries where this French
cultural center is, how Charlie Hebdo had helped the French government and the
French people how to better define freedom of expression and of the press that
they had not known of even if it meant sacrificing some of their countrymen in
the process. They had not died in vain.

But why
was Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas also attended the rally?

Did he
also mean to say he supported Charlie Hebdo and endorsed the drawings of ‘The
Prophet’?

And did
he bring some copies of the magazine to share with his staff at his office?

One can
understand why Benjamin Netanyahu also attended the rally to represent the ZionistState
of Israel
even if it meant having to wearing thick overcoat, even if it meant sacrificing
his personal safety looking scared.

Mahmoud
Abbas painted an ugly picture of a Palestinian Muslim who should not have been
there in the first place since it signifies that he agrees with Charlie Hebdo.

But why
didn’t he bring some copies of the magazine back to Palestine and share them with his cabinet
members and other officials?

And so
far no country including France
has bothered to give recognition to Charlie Hebdo or their cartoonists for
sacrificing their lives for the sake of the freedoms that they cherished.

Isn’t
this strange that something like this could not happen?

After all France had given
immediate citizenship to a Muslim man from Africa
who had given safety to some French Jews who had come to the Jewish Supermarket
to recognize his bravery.

If this
did not happen that the cartoonists who were killed and their magazine, Charlie
Hebdo had shown unusual fortitude to uphold the freedoms they claim to support
fully, then one can say that the support they got from many in France leading
to the march, could be nothing but a meaningless show…

Chances
are if Hollande dares to carry copies of Charlie Hebdo with the offending
caricature of the Prophet on his foreign trips and especially to some Arab and
Muslim countries he will get what Charlie Hebdo got.

He is that scared to even talk about Charlie Hebdo when he is outside of France and tell everybody how proud he is of
them and their cartoonists who had helped him to define those freedoms for the
whole of France
that they can share with the whole world.

But
alas, they are the Charlie Hebdo version of the Freedom of Expression and
Freedom of the Press which are still vague other than their insistence that it
was okay for them to defame Islam.

So in
the end Charlie Hebdo was telling to the whole of France and the whole world that
their own version of those freedoms are nothing but to defame Islam and no
more.

They are
not able defaming their own religions and country but only Islam.
